Languages : en
Pages : 353
Book Description
Chilling Adventures of Sabrina meets The L Word in this fresh, sizzling New York Times bestselling rom-com by Lana Harper. Emmy Harlow is a witch but not a very powerful one—in part because she hasn't been home to the magical town of Thistle Grove in years. Her self-imposed exile has a lot to do with a complicated family history and a desire to forge her own way in the world, and only the very tiniest bit to do with Gareth Blackmoore, heir to the most powerful magical family in town and casual breaker of hearts and destroyer of dreams. But when a spellcasting tournament that her family serves as arbiters for approaches, it turns out the pull of tradition (or the truly impressive parental guilt trip that comes with it) is strong enough to bring Emmy back. She's determined to do her familial duty; spend some quality time with her best friend, Linden Thorn; and get back to her real life in Chicago. On her first night home, Emmy runs into Talia Avramov—an all-around badass adept in the darker magical arts—who is fresh off a bad breakup . . . with Gareth Blackmoore. Talia had let herself be charmed, only to discover that Gareth was also seeing Linden—unbeknownst to either of them. And now she and Linden want revenge. Only one question stands: Is Emmy in? But most concerning of all: Why can't she stop thinking about the terrifyingly competent, devastatingly gorgeous, wickedly charming Talia Avramov?

They were leaving. I didn't wave. They didn't wave. They didn't even look back! I guess you don't if you've just killed someone. Especially if that someone is your brother-in-law.

Once miraculously ashore, he had to remain dead to the people who had done their best to drown him while on a fishing excursion during the time their cruise ship was in port. Luckily, Stuart had funds and resources that his would-be murderers didn't suspect, so he was able to craft a new identity and a plan. A plan for revenge that he would execute in his own time and in his own way. After all, the saying was, "Vengeance is a dish best served cold." Payback is a Bitch!
